I thought I'd start a thread to share pics of my 2 gorgeous rescutes.
First of all, their stories:
Schrödinger (named after the austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger, famous for his theoretical experiment involving a cat) is a seal point siamese, adopted through a rescue network at about 7-10 months of age. He was living on the street and was in very poor condition, with awful fleas, ear mites, an infected wound in the mouth... He also had a horrible obsession with food, agressively biting our fingers if they smelled like food, licking the kitchen floor and counter, and even eating sponges that we used for the dishes and plastic trash can bags... He probably starved on the street, so any chance he had to get food he went for it at all costs. Today he's a handsome and well balanced boy, he's really come a long way.
Shunso (named after japanese artist Hishida Shunso, famous for his cat paintings) is a mystery kitty, probably a siamese/snowshoe mix, that started off as a foster of mine and that I recently adopted because he was the perfect fit to join my gang of fur monsters. He was rescued from the streets by a shelter and had to stay there in a cage for over a year as he had very bad skin issues (was almost hairless when they found him, probably why he was abandonned) and fleas. During this time he became obese, and also broke all of his front teeth chewing on the cage bars... He then went to a first foster home who didn't keep him long because he is very LOUD and likes to meow at night (currently working on that...). So he came to me. He's lost a lot of weight but we are still working through his midnight yowling issues. Apart from that he's a real snugglebug!
Sadly they are both FeLV positive, but I am hoping they will be with me for many years.
On to pictures! Enjoy!
(Here with my corgi Sun, who is also a rescue.)
If you want to see more of them and my dog, you can check us out on Instagram! https://instagram.com/thefurmonsters/
